Description
06B Metric Roller Chain Sprocket — Light-Duty Precision Power Transmission
The 06B sprocket operates at 9.525mm (3/8 inch) pitch, positioned between the compact 05B and the versatile 08B in the ISO metric range. Designed for precision indexing, instrument drives, vending mechanisms, and light conveyor applications where compact diameter and smooth engagement are priorities. Available in simplex (06B-1), duplex (06B-2), and triplex (06B-3) with 9 to 114 teeth.

Features
☑ CNC hobbed teeth to AGMA quality class — smooth, low-noise engagement for indoor precision equipment
☑ Induction hardened tooth flanks HRC 40-50 — extended wear life even in continuous-run applications
☑ Bore concentricity 0.025mm TIR — vibration-free operation critical for precision instruments and indexing
☑ Compact diameters — smaller OD than 08B at the same tooth count, fitting tighter machine envelopes
☑ Stainless steel and nylon versions available for food-grade and clean-room environments
☑ EN 10204 Type 3.1 material certificates on request — ISO 9001:2015 certified manufacturing
Compatibility
Chain: 06B-1/2/3 ISO roller chain (9.525mm pitch). Not compatible with ANSI #35.
Bore: 6mm – 30mm depending on tooth count. Finished bore with keyway to DIN 6885.
Selection: Simplex for most light-duty applications. Duplex when load approaches simplex rating. Choose by matching chain standard exactly.
Applications
Packaging & Vending: Compact 9.525mm pitch for carton handling, bottle labelling, and vending machine internal mechanisms.
Instruments & Lab Equipment: Precision indexing drives, analytical instrument mechanisms, and small-scale automated test systems.
